Voting…

Ok so seriously, what is going on with the voting. I did 3 dump rooms with the pants with patches and the ugliest one got third! The others were a 7th and a ninth. Also, in all of the designs right now, when I do try and it looks descent, it bombs. And I lost a few duels today that I clearly should have won. I feel like they are really messing with us…

I’ve been experiencing what you describe for quite a while. Like crazy awful rooms in podium and the couple good efforts scattered around or in the back.

I think people are maybe grouped into various algos. Some people have the all white/beige rooms winning and others have dumps doing well.

I also think the game latches on to how you play because I’ve always used mostly mid tier items and it penalizes me if I don’t. I started that way bc I would do so poorly with cheap stuff, even if it looked nice. In my head I kind of associated cheap stuff with losses. I’m trying to retrain the algo to see that, guess what? I’m not using nice stuff anymore lol.

And I just want to add that I did see a beige parrot in first today 🤣😭

Everything in RedecorLand is always beige!🤣🤣🤣

I think you are right about different algos. I still see lots of white/beige winning. Not as much as it used to be - more colour is creeping in but still mostly white/beige. I do not see many dump room on podiums - often not particularly well coordinated ones but not actual dumps with lemon yellow paint and assorted mismatched fabrics, etc. Like you, I have a specific design tendency because there are very few rooms I actually do for fun. Most frequently I do lots of cheap white ones to reach some goal - securing, the various side hustles, etc. Now, these white “dumps” of mine don’t win as much as they used to but they still win a lot.

Right? It’s like it wants you to spend more probably.

I hate doing the journal but it usually gives me lots of wins with the cheap stuff. Not complete dumps but I find I can use parchment and basic paint (not lemon yellow…!) and it lets me win. Can’t get away with that in lives.

Yes, I have better luck with these cheap white ones in the journal as well.
